The ILO IB was created by interns in 2004 to facilitate the communication and the exchange among current, former and future interns at the International Labor Organization. It is here to help you connect with people and events in Geneva, as well as to push for improvements in our internship experience. ​

​The ILO IB is a non-profit association composed of ILO interns. It has no political bonds with the ILO and our main common characteristic is a belief in Decent Work as a critical component towards social development. Join our Facebook group where you can post about housing opportunities, professional and social events, and other questions relating to the ILO or Geneva.
